Display Energy Certificates
Display Energy Certificates (DEC) are required by law to be held for each qualifying building on a school site. The DEC is also accompanied by a Recommendation Report (DEC-RR) that is also required to be updated at regular intervals. The renewal frequency for these documents is dependent on the floor area of the building being certified.

DEC Renewal |
RR Renewal |
---|---|---|
Less than 250m2 |
No DEC Required |
No RR Required |

The expiry date is clearly shown on your existing certification. For most schools there will be an annual requirement.
Pricing
We have worked hard to provide as cost-effective solution for schools as possible. The cost of DEC compliance for a school is dependent on a number of items including:
- Number of Qualifying Buildings
- Size of Qualifying Buildings
- If a Site Visit is Required
- If a DEC-RR Renewal is Required
- If we have Assessed the Site Previously
Therefore, the price for each school will be individually calculated annually.
Where possible we aim to deliver this service using our qualified in-house assessors in order to offer you the best rates possible. Occasionally we may supplement our capacity with partner contractors however this will be at no additional cost to the school.
Other Certification Services
We can also assist with arranging other certification needs such as Energy Performance Certificates or Air Conditioning Inspections upon request. To request a quotation please get in touch with the Energy Management team.
